3-D Printing

Posted on December 29, 2010 by Jeff

I was amazed to find out that 3-D printing is affordable from a company named Shapeways. They can use a variety of materials, including steel and glass.

You can design your own piece or order other people’s brilliant designs. I guess it is kind of like threadless.com. Everything from abstract geometry to iPhone cases, jewelry, and Escher knots. I’m in love!

    I ordered five items in a variety of materials, including metal. They are all just as cool as I expected. I am now a big fan of Shapeways.
